Mrs. Houston's art classes always begin with 5-10 minutes of dedicated sketchbook time. (Unless the rare full-project-workday is needed.)
Loose paper is always provided in class for students without a sketchbook.
Students are given these 3 options for sketchbook time (this is emphasized every class period):Â
Draw the prompt on the slide of the day.
Continue to draw/shade/color a previous sketchbook prompt.
Free draw in your sketchbook!
Sketchbook checks are every 2 weeks.
